@Lockdis Hi.
Works firejail --noprofile keepassxc?
Works firejail --ignore=private-tmp keepassxc?

it's working with firejail --noprofile keepassxc but only if i disable firejail profile on Kate(the KDE text editor) otherwise it open an empty file. (Kate have the rights to see the folder but not the files in it?)
and not working with firejail --ignore=private-tmp keepassxc : Unable to detect a launcher for 'file:///tmp/tEMESW.New.rtf'

i have also tried with master branch from github and same problem.

This is expected behaviour.

but even if i disable firejail on Kate (using sudo firecfg --clean) i can't launch it from firejailed keepassxc, is a security mesure? it would be nice to allow it

@Lockdis well, note that it is dangerous.

$ firejail --ignore=private-bin --ignore=private-etc keepassxc
$ # OR permanent
$ echo -e "ignore private-etc\nignore private-bin" >> ~/.config/firejail/keepassxc.local
